Chapter 1625: Chapter 1623: The Agreement

The library in Pope’s eyes was completely different.

The entire space transformed into a cosmic deep space adorned with countless stars,

as if he were leisurely strolling through the vast space, with stars in his hand turning into corresponding books.

Because the library uses spatial folding technology, the internal space is much larger than what is observed from the outside.

Since walking would take quite a lot of time, Han Dong took the opportunity to ask some questions.

"Pope, I only learned today that borrowing books requires submitting a corresponding level of [contribution].

To access the highest specification of Demon Books, one must provide an almost impossible to obtain ’Great Contribution’... Speaking of which, Pope, have you ever seen the Demon Books stored in the library?

Or, have you ever made a great contribution?"

Han Dong initially thought that someone like Pope, a ’child of destiny,’ would definitely have come into contact with the Demon Books deep within the library,

considering he is a direct disciple of the principal and the youngest professor, with a great possibility of participating in tasks that could earn "Great Contribution."

However...

"The London Game rewarded me with the ’Revelation of Glaki,’ which was the first Demon Book I encountered.

As you’ve heard, ’Great Contribution’ is nearly impossible to achieve... During my tenure as a teacher, I haven’t participated in any events worthy of being called ’great.’

However, I’ve heard my teacher mention the Demon Books stored in the library occasionally."

"Hmm? What kind of books?"

"I naturally couldn’t know exactly what they are.

But, the Demon Books collected in the library belong to the relatively stable and controllable type.

The Demon Books that Eugene and I obtained cannot be stored here... Both ’Scripture of the Corpse Eating Cult’ and ’Revelation of Glaki’ belong to the uncontrollable type.

Since the construction of Mi University, the number of teachers who have been able to access these Demon Books doesn’t exceed the number of your human Fingers."

"Relatively stable Demon Books? So, does that mean training with them carries less risk?"

"Nicholas, I must remind you.

’Demon Books’ possess [uniqueness]; since you’ve been designated as the heir of ’Book of Dead Spirit,’ others are of no use to you."

Han Dong smiled in response:

"If it’s you, Pope, you should understand why I’m so eager to get in touch with Demon Books, right?

I consider myself a fairly disciplined person, generally able to suppress various desires within me,

except for the greed for knowledge, that is, [thirst for knowledge]

which is indeed difficult to restrain... You must be the same, right, Pope?

I don’t necessarily want to learn from them; I just wish to witness and touch such special items that can change the world’s Destiny Order, to satisfy my thirst for world knowledge."

Of course, Han Dong’s intentions weren’t that simple.

If he could truly touch the Demon Books in the library,

One reason would be to satisfy his own thirst for knowledge,

The other would be, depending on the type of Demon Book, if suitable, to hope either the Count or the Swollen Doctor could try to learn from it.

Both of them are indispensable Demons to Han Dong, and he believes they have the ability to learn from Demon Books... If the Demon Books could stimulate them, it might quickly facilitate their Construct Mythology.

Upon hearing Han Dong’s explanation of ’thirst for knowledge,’

Pope fell into silence temporarily.

Within the Starfield Brain, two gaseous planets were colliding fiercely, indicating some sort of ideological conflict.

After about five minutes, the conflict gradually subsided.

Taking a deep breath, Pope seemed to have made a decision:

"Do you have time half a year later, during the winter break at the end of this academic year?"

"If it’s something you need, Pope, I can certainly make time."

"This is a major matter,

requiring at least a month of free time, and you need to maintain your best condition before departure,

considering it an event as important as the [London Game].

In theory, a ’new teacher’ like you, Nicholas, who has just been promoted to associate professor, has no right to participate.

Given your outstanding performance in the London Game, and the special treasures obtained in the Ladybug Game, letting you join could fill some vacancies in the team, raising the success rate slightly."

"What is it?"

"I can’t disclose the specifics yet,

as whether you can join this event isn’t up to me alone... You’ll be officially admitted once all members agree.

The only thing I can tell you now is,

this matter has been in preparation for nearly a century, and I was chosen by chance.

If successful, 1~3 people who participate and make a significant contribution may earn a ’Great Contribution.’"

"Sounds great!"

Surprise flashed in Han Dong’s eyes unexpectedly.

Initially, he just planned to extract information about the library’s Demon Books from Pope, unexpectedly gaining a significant opportunity.

Of course,

such an ’opportunity’ is inseparable from Han Dong’s continuous efforts to strengthen his relationship with Pope during this time.

...

After about twenty minutes of walking, they finally reached

[Library - Upper Level Area]

They needed to pass through a special passage constructed from ’Color of Adult Star,’ sticky and iridescent.

When the kaleidoscopic starry scene disappeared, they officially stepped into the upper library area... A three-tier cylindrical structure, linked up and down by spiral stairs.

Each row of bookshelves contained only one [Demon Book], stored in various ways.

Some were immersed in liquid tanks,

some sealed in black wooden boxes,

some preserved in sealed skulls, and so on.

When Han Dong was trying to find books related to the Void.

"Considering the possibility of joining, I’ll reluctantly guide you here... If the team had an additional ’Void Walker,’ it would enhance the overall mobility."

After speaking,

Pope brought down a book sealed in [Black Crystal Stone] from the top shelf.

’Brief History of Void’

"This is one of the teacher’s greatest works, and also the most fundamental, most suitable for beginners like you, exclusively available at Mi University.

Theoretically, to understand the Void, one must delve deep into it.

However, the teacher, with his own unique understanding, absolute control over the Void, and understanding of the origin of Demon text, authored this book transcending time and space.

In my view, its value is in no way lower than [Demon Book].

If your brain’s capability is strong enough, with internal complexity, you could directly touch the essence of the Void through this book, saving you the journey into the Void."

When talking about his teacher, stars shimmered in Pope’s eyes, filled with endless respect.

"What a treasure! I am incredibly grateful."

"Since you’ve achieved your purpose, don’t waste time here, the book will automatically deduct [contribution] and your teacher points when you check it out."

"Understood."

Just as Han Dong was about to leave with the ’Black Crystal Stone’ in his arms,

the Demon Eye on his brow stirred, suddenly looking down.

Seeing through the substance of the brain under the floor tiles,

beneath a network of orderly arranged nerve pathways, there seemed to be a nest of [Color of the Star].

And deep at the bottom, there seemed to be a Secret Room hidden.

"Did you... see it? That Secret Room.

Unexpectedly, the [Eye] attached to the manuscript can reach such a level.

Indeed, below that is the special section where the Demon Books are stored."
